Yesterday was officially 10 days of living life as a vegan…Exciting! I can’t say it hasn’t been hard to go without things like cheese (my favorite), but it has been easier than I thought.

I am fortunate enough to have a vast knowledge of vegetarian options and know where to find the proper ingredients for success. I started thinking yesterday how hard it would be if I didn’t. I happened to be reading through a vegan cookbook and realized that many of these recipes call for ingredients that the normal everyday person wouldn’t have in their kitchen, know how to find or even know what they were.

I need to start writing down more recipes and pass them along because I can take a random thought or traditional recipes and tweak them to meet the vegan guidelines by using only normal kitchen ingredients. I’ll see what I can come up with in the next few days and I’ll get another recipe published in this blog.

Til then it might interest you that if you’re in a hurry and desperately need to eat, fast food is still available to you. I ventured to Taco Bell this week and realized that you can eat vegan off their menu, you’ll just have to take the time and special order. I had a bean burrito minus the cheese. It was delicious! Plus, I was able to get my Taco Bell fix. Hurry up and make a run for the boarder!
